Cincinnati Bengals linebacker Vontaze Burfict, who returned to practice earlier this week after sitting out two games with a concussion, is listed as probable for Sunday's game against the Carolina Panthers, according to Cincinnati.com's Paul Dehner.
Burfict has been cleared by team doctors, but still needs to be tested by an independent neurologist before he can officially return to the lineup.
A Pro Bowler in 2013, Burfict's concussion has limited him to a pair of games this season in which he's recorded eight combined tackles, one forced fumble, and two passes defended.
